The ACT108W-600E from WeEN Semiconductors is an AC Thyristor Switch that has been designed for contactors, circuit breakers, valves, dispensers, door locks, fan motor circuits, lower-power highly inductive, resistive, and safety loads, and pump motor circuits applications. It has a break-over voltage of 600 V and a break-over current of 8 A. This triac has a gate trigger voltage of 1 V and a gate trigger current of 10 mA. It supports negative gate triggering, for high noise immunity and offers full-cycle AC conduction, which makes it useful for maximum load power applications.
This triac has a remote gate terminal that separates the gate driver from the effects of the load current to ensure reliable triggering. It provides safe clamping of low-energy over-voltage transients with self-protective turn-on functionality during high-energy voltage transient events. This triac is available in a surface-mount package that measures 6.3 x 3.3 x 1.5 mm.
